Take a special look at a turkey’s nest.

This video was shot on my property. The incubation time for turkey eggs is 28 days. Watch how the hen rotates the eggs. This is done once a day and is real treat to see. Once the eggs hatch, the mother leaves the nest within 12 to 24 hours and the little chicks following behind. She does not feed them and they must learn to forage on their own right away.

It’s not too often you get to see wild turkeys during the whole nesting process. There’s a lot to be learned from this educational video.
